The Mother And The Manager explores the cultural roots of codependent behavior patterns formed because of unequal status in relationships. Although it focuses primarily on how our traditional male and female roles can create these patterns, it also explores how this dynamic can create unhealthy relationships between any two people, regardless of their gender. In its final chapters, The Mother And The Manager proposes positive and workable solutions for creating healthier relationships based on equality and cooperation.
